Roger George Moore was born in Stockwell, south London on October 14,
1927, the son of a policeman. At 15, he entered art school with the
intention of becoming a painter, and later became an apprentice at an
animation studio. He delved into acting as an extra in crowd scenes in the
mid 1940's. He studied at the Royal Academy
of Drama (RADA) and appeared in some plays in the West End, before being
inducted into the British Army. There he served in the rank of 2nd
Lieutenant with a Combined Services Entertainment Unit in Germany at the end
of World War II. After release from the military, he worked in theatre,
radio and television, but also worked as a model and salesman to make ends
meet.

Moore came to the U.S. in 1953, where he got a film contract with MGM,
playing supporting roles in several films. His first big TV series was Ivanhoe,
followed by Maverick. But it was his role as suave and debonair
Simon Templar in the TV series The
Saint that catapulted him to stardom. His contract with that show
prevented him from being chosen for to play James Bond in 1962. But the Bond
role returned to Moore in 1972, when Sean Connery again said for a second
time that he was finished as Bond, and Moore was hired as his successor for
Live
and Let Die.

It has been said that Moore is closer to Ian
Fleming's original concept of Bond, as a disenfranchised member of the
British Establishment, than Connery's more rough-and-tumble Bond. Indeed,
the tone of the series changed under Moore's aegis, with the scripts being
tailored to his personality and acting ability. Moore made 7 Bond films [more
than Connery's 6], retiring as 007 after A
View to a Kill in 1985. He was succeeded by Timothy
Dalton the following year.

Moore has acted sporadically since that time, and appears most frequently
in European gossip magazines and at charitable events. In 1996 he appeared
in a television commercial spoofing James Bond for the conglomerate Hansen's,
which was pulled off the air due to litigation with the Bond copyright
holders. He succeeded the late Audrey
Hepburn in the role of Special Representative for the Film Arts for UNICEF,
raising funds for children in underdeveloped countries. Roger was the first
James Bond to be honored by the British government, receiving a CBE (Commander
of the British Empire) award in March 1999. He was awarded a knighthood in
June 2003 for his work with UNICEF.

"Bond
was the last big movie series I did.
However, no major action is required to say "My name is Bond, James Bond".
The actor was most likely to look brave when the weapons were banging, "says
Roger Moore when he receives the book publishing in Stockholm.

"It was wonderful to record them, it was a wonderful time of my life and
it's the most popular job I've done.
But I've recorded other movies that I like better, such as "The Man Who
Chased Himself" (1970), a double-track story. And three films with director Andrew McLaglen: "The Wild Geese", "Waves of the
Sea" and "Special Command - Mission to Kill".Roger Moores signed "My word is my Bond" now at the JAMES
